Dual-career Pokémon trainer

"Loto~ (It should be fine, Loto~)"

In the Liuli Gym, the first round of battle had just ended, and Rotom handed the unconscious Riolu to Lin Jing.

"Well, thank you for your hard work this time, Rotom.

And of course Riolu."

Looking at Riolu, who was all wet, Lin Jing gently squeezed the water droplets on its fur, but it was a pity that it was just a drop in the bucket.

After all, he didn't dare to use too much force on the injured Riolu.

“Gaga ga ga. (Okay, we’ll take care of this one.)”

Pokkigu and Hualiao Huanhuan, who had been watching the show in the spectator seats for a long time, have now come over.

The power of mental power gently covered Riolu's body, and the petals containing healing power gently fell, and Riolu's injuries began to improve visibly.

"I'll leave it to you. Remember to ask Windy Dog to help dry it."

Carefully touching Riolu's moist nose, Lin Jing instructed.

"geiwa. (That's fine, but Shizue, don't you need to ask Arcanine to help you, too?)"

Huanhuan, who was splashing flower therapy, asked curiously, but Lin Jing just shook her head in return.

"No, there's still a fight to be fought.

This is a water gym, if you dry it properly it will be in vain."

"Gaga ga ga. (You're right. You don't even know how scared Fengsu was when that water tornado exploded just now.)"

Pokkigu covered his mouth and whispered.

"Okay, it just hates water, don't make it up like that.

Take Riolu down quickly."

Lin Jing also laughed when he saw Pokigu acting like a thief.

“Gagai gagi. (I know.)”

With a wave of his hand, Pokémon brought Riolu back to the viewing stand.

Lin Jing also looked again at the figure opposite him who had just taken back the two Pokémon. The smile that he had just raised towards Pokémon turned into a solemn one.

“I have to say, your Riolu’s performance just now was indeed surprising.

My Pokémon and I were really shocked."

Although he lost, Adam's behavior was still extremely elegant. Even so, it was obvious that the astonishment on his face had not completely disappeared.

The sudden upstream movement without any warning not only scared the Sea Dragon and the Heart Fish, but even he, a seasoned gym trainer, was caught off guard.

After all, Riolu performed such an astonishing move without any instructions at all.

"If I'm not mistaken, Riolu should have heard your voice through the waveguide at that time, right?

It seems that besides being an excellent trainer and a top coordination trainer, you are not just an ordinary person. "

Afterwards, Adam also reacted when thinking about the characteristics of the Riolu clan.

"You are too generous.

You are the one. If it weren't for Riolu's performance before, I wouldn't have much confidence in solving your rainy day tactics."

Lin Jing shook her head. Although she didn't give a direct answer, it was almost the same as confirming what Adam said.

"I originally thought there was some big problem between you and this Riolu, or between it and Rotom.

Now it seems that I was overthinking.

Although there are still some shortcomings in some aspects, you seem to have your own tacit understanding.

In that case, let the second round officially begin!"

Adam shook his head slightly, and a brand new Poké Ball was already in his hand on his white gloves.

You have passed the first round of the test.

Although the number of clashes was not very many, Adam, as an experienced gym trainer, saw it clearly.

Whether in the changes in moves or the improvisation in battle, he is at the level of a qualified coordination trainer and trainer.

The tacit understanding problem that was originally thought to be a weakness was also revealed in the cooperation between Rotom and Riolu in the end.

Although he thought there were still some big problems, Adam felt relieved when he thought about what Lin Jing had said before that these Pokémon were newly captured and were still in the adjustment period.

Maybe this is the first time these two Pokémon are fighting in doubles.

In this case, their performance is already quite good.

Next, let me see what you understand about the most common one-on-one battles among trainers!

"Your second opponent is this!

Show your charm in this blue sea, Sakura fish!"

"Chirp~"

A white light flashed by, and a slender fish-like figure emerged from the water.

As the tail behind it trembled gently, bursts of fine raindrops were splashed, as if washing away the light caused by the Poké Ball, leaving only a pink body dancing among the star-like water droplets.

Transparent drops of water rolled over the tip of its long and slender mouth, and the tiny eyelashes above its eyes blinked gently, making its look even more charming.

What's a little strange is that there are two pieces of light purple scales on its chest, which makes people want to complain. Do fish also need such things? It's not a mermaid.

Finally, at the end of the long and slender tail, a purple scale that is several times larger than the tail flutters gently, which, together with the tip of the hair and the shell under the body, gives a different embellishment to its originally pink body.

"Sakura fish..."

Looking at the Pokémon in front of him, Lin Jing breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the next battle will not be as difficult as the previous one.

With the last wave hitting, the power of praying for rain has been exhausted.

Although the cherry fish in front of you is likely to have the same free-swimming characteristic, there is no possibility of activating it.

However, using the tactic of praying for rain when there is only one of it left would only put oneself at a disadvantage.

"Rotom, if that's the case, please come back first!"

"Loto? (Huh?)"

Although he was a little puzzled, Rotom, who felt really tired, readily accepted Lin Jing's suggestion and stood beside Lin Jing with the jumping washing machine.

"Sakura is also a pure water-type Pokémon. Aren't you going to let Rotom, an electric-type Pokémon, play?"

Adam was also a little surprised at Lin Jing's choice.

"After all, after fighting for so long and using so many moves, Rotom's physical strength is not very good.

And I don't think you can easily pass the gym competition just by using moves with restraining attributes.

Like Rotom's electromagnetic waves and 100,000 volts, they didn't work several times before."

Lin Jing explained without hiding anything.

“It seems that you see it very clearly.

Yes, keeping an eye on the status of Pokémon and even the opponent at all times is the basic quality of being a qualified trainer.

That’s right, without these you wouldn’t have achieved the results you did before.

Then let me take a good look at your fight!"

He closed his eyes first, then opened them again.

Although they were not far apart, Lin Jing had already sensed a fighting spirit from Adam that was slightly inconsistent with his previous temperament.

If Adam had previously been testing new trainers as a gym leader, then what he wants now is a pure battle with Lin Jing, right?

“I’d love to see what the legendary Mr. Adam’s water performance is like.

Vulpix, it's your turn now!"

(Hmm... I haven't written about gym battles in a long time. To be more precise, I'm not keeping up with the progress. What do you think of gym battles of the same level?)
